du-fixes proxy question

[boballen]

Is there any support for apt-proxy in this script? or are there any plans for it?

Regards, Bob.

no. No support currently. There is a simple -p switch, use -h to see proper syntax, but that doesn't use apt-proxy, it just sets the proxy for basic internet wget type connections.

proxies seem to simply be too different in each configuration to really try to support from my experience.

things like apt-proxy are better set in apt preferences, I don't know the syntax because I don't use proxies, and probably never will.

So anything proxy related will have to be developed and EXTENSIVELY tested by whoever wants it. And not just on one local proxy, on many.
